After watching over 160 anime titles its hard to find anime that really makes an impact on me. Its really hard!! And this anime made it easily. I was struggling to find a series to watch, was re watching shows i've seen 5 - 7 times. This anime was a breath of fresh air for me.

Im still recuperating from it, and I watched it some days ago. I recommend.

definitely the goodest chinese cartoon.nice and concise unlike some other long winded shows. has one message and really hammers it home in more ways than one would expect. this show is the only reason i lift. also they go to space and i REALLY REALLY like space.i didn't actually read the subtitles i just watched the pictures

This anime is simply amazing! The animation is spectacular, the story is engaging, and the characters are memorable. This anime made me cry and cheer all the way through, I can't recommend it enough! If you like the trope of battle speeches, giant explosions, and mecha units that get bigger than galaxies, then this anime is for you. It's fun and just too good for words, just watch it!

A beloved Mecha anime that has aged pretty well, an action adventure that will bring out your inner dude bro. Witness the legend that is Gurren Lagann and add it to your queue today! Or tomorrow, that's cool too.

I love the evolution, from fun and playful, to intense and serious. I love all of the subtle (and some times not so subtle) foreshadowing. The charters are awesome. We know and understand each and every one of them. We see almost all of them grow and change as the season continues. Its just a great show lol

This is a bomb ass series. Really shows you the epitome of manliness and hits you right in the feelings. If you really liked this series I recommend watching the 2 movies. It's basically the condensed version of the young Simon and big Simon arcs. They also make the fights better in there.

This is an amazing anime that hits you in the heart everytime you watch it. I have re-watched it multiple times now and every time its as good as the first. There is so much passion in the anime that it just overflows with it. Watching it makes me want to do great things with my own life.

Gurren Lagann.. I have mixed thoughts about this one. This show is obviously praised by the anime community. Fans hyped it up so much that I wanted to like it that much too. But to be honest, I didn't like it as much as I hoped to like it. Not to say it's not a good show, because it definitely above average. The art style and animation are great, the action and fights were entertaining, the mood

Gurren Lagann.. I have mixed thoughts about this one. This show is obviously praised by the anime community. Fans hyped it up so much that I wanted to like it that much too. But to be honest, I didn't like it as much as I hoped to like it. Not to say it's not a good show, because it definitely above average. The art style and animation are great, the action and fights were entertaining, the mood was fun. The momentum the show creates was decent.. but the whole keep going, believe in yourself stuff, and how everything just fell into place... it all just felt too.. cheesy? unbelievable? whatever it was, it eventually bored me. and by the end, I just wasnt that impressed. It is hard to explain. Without going into any spoilers, certain things that happen to certain characters, and the way the story proceeded after certain events, time jumps, etc.... it just often took me out of it. Maybe if I rewatched it I would like it more, but tbh, i dont really want to watch it again. Score: 7/10

This anime.... is epic... is great... is moving...is so many things.
This is easily one of the all time greats. A unique anime that manages to take a story that starts with a hole in the ground, and ends with a universe spanning epic that has few rivals in anime.
If you haven't watched, stop reading and jump in.
